ORIGINAL POSTER

I applied DTV on 20th on Cambodia and still it's pending approval for 21 days already. How can I know how long do I have to wait more? I'm stressed.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) approval process in Cambodia can take anywhere from a few weeks to a month, especially amid current political issues. Users recommend patience, staying in Cambodia, and contacting the embassy if necessary. It's noted that if you don’t hear back within 11 business days, you should follow up. Many applicants report varying experiences, with some receiving approvals after 22 days or facing rejections.

I applied for DTV on the 13th in Cambodia too, and mine is still pending as well. Some people who applied with me on the same day just got rejection emails today. So I understand how stressful the wait is.

Email them. Go to embassy if you’re in Phnom Penh. It takes 11 business days so if you don’t hear within that time then you should act.

Anonymous participant 385 that will get your application cancelled if they find out. You must remain in the jurisdiction of the embassy for the entire application process. Pretend they have your passport like the old paper application process.

Anonymous participant 385 Sorry but that's 🚫 NOT correct advice. You are to stay in the country where you have applied for the DTV visa until you have the decision from the Thai Embassy or Consulate.

There has been reports where the Thai Embassy or Consulate has asked the applicant to send them ALL of the passport pages...to review your immigration history and that you have stayed in the country during the DTV application process.

It can easily take up to 1 month in Cambodia. And now with all the political turmoil in Cambodia it will probably be delayed even more than usual

You have to wait for a reply email from your country of origin, if they are slow to reply you will be slow.
